Flexible, Organic and Printed Electronics Market Forecast

New market research report, entitled Printed, Organic & Flexible Electronics: Forecasts, Players & Opportunities, provides the most comprehensive view of the topic, giving detailed ten year forecasts by device type. The market is analyzed by territory, printed vs non printed, rigid vs flexible, inorganic vs organic, cost of materials vs process cost and much more, with over 160 tables and figures. Activities of over 1,000 leading companies are given, as is assessment of the winners and losers to come.


The total market for Flexible, Organic and printed electronics will grow from $16.04 billion in 2013 to $76.79 billion in 2023. The majority of that is OLEDs (organic but not printed) and conductive ink used for a wide range of applications. On the other hand, stretchable electronics, logic and memory, thin film sensors are much smaller segments but with huge growth potential as they emerge from R&D.
